Hello, my name is Karyl F. Stein and this is my website–a place to collect artifacts related to my family and interests. Family and friends may enjoy the journal entries. Perhaps some will wonder how I prepared a certain meal and look up the recipe. Searches for technical setup or configuration help may lead to one of my articles. Others may wonder how they got to this site and quickly run away! Whatever your reason for being here you are welcome and I hope that you find something interesting or useful within these pages.
The site itself is a set of blog-type entries broken into different categories. At the bottom of each section there is an RSS subscription button. You may use that to subscribe to whatever categories that may interest you, or subscribe to the full feed. Please note that this is just a hobby site and new content should not be expected on any regular basis.
